BOSS VE-20 Vocal Processor

The BOSS VE-20 VOCAL PERFORMER has been designed from the ground up for singers, featuring some of the finest vocal-effects technology on the market.

The BOSS VE 20 VOCAL PERFORMER allows you to instantly add lush vocal layers and harmonies to your singing. Add realtime pitch-correction, and show your creative side with special effects such as Distortion, Radio and Strobe.

The high resolution signal path is based on the design of the now classic ASP8024. We’ve drawn on David Dearden’s wealth of experience and the evolution of his designs going back to the 1970s, combining the benefits of traditional discrete circuitry with the latest advances in audio design technology.

Select the harmony interval of your choice, or create multi-part stacks, such as upper third and lower fifth, and save them for instant recall. You can also thicken your vocals with Double Track. Sing, record, loop, and overdub with the onboard Phrase Looper, inherited from BOSS’s popular RE-20XL Loop Station. You get 38 seconds of mono record time to loop and layer phrases, and you can do it all in real time onstage.

With the same solid-metal construction as other BOSS stompboxes, the VE-20 is built to last. Its footprint is identical to BOSS Twin-Series pedals, ensuring that it will fit perfectly into existing multi-pedal BOSS pedalboards and travel cases.

The main features of the BOSS VE-20 Vocal Performer include:

Specialised effects for vocalists, including Harmony, Double-Track, Dynamics, Reverb, Delay, and more

And the winner is......Boss VE-20

IN addition to this unit I´ve tried the Digitech Vocalist Live 3, the TC Helicon Harmonizer GX-T and the Electro Harmonix Voice Box and this is the unit that I ended up buying. Why? First and foremost, sound quality. Simply the best sounding. You have to input the key manually and so that can be a bit limiting/time consuming but the amount you can tweak this unit is impressive with plenty of user presets to save all your creations. Great construction like all Boss pedals. The looper is an added bonus and a great creative tool. And if you don´t want to spend the time tweaking settings there are tons of presets right out of the box that are very usable. When I decide to spend the money on Boss I am never disappointed.

Im currently using this as a backup tool on live gigs. Very useful loop function, tight sound on every effect, although you have the ability to change each one as you please. And if youre not sure about the price, I can tell that if you were going to buy each pedal separately it would cost much more.
